But concerning things sacrificed to idols, we know, (for we all have knowledge: knowledge puffs up, but love edifies.
But concerning things sacrificed to idols, we know, (for we all have knowledge: knowledge puffs up, but love edifies.
If any one think he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know [it].
And if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know.
But if any one love God, *he* is known of him):
But if anyone loves God, this one is known by Him.
-- concerning then the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol [is] nothing in [the] world, and that there [is] no other God save one.
Therefore concerning the eating of things offered to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no other God but one.
For and if indeed there are [those] called gods, whether in heaven or on earth, (as there are gods many, and lords many,)
For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many gods and many lords),
yet to us [there is] one God, the Father, of whom all things, and *we* for him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, by whom [are] all things, and *we* by him.
yet for us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and through whom we live.
But knowledge [is] not in all: but some, with conscience of the idol, until now eat as of a thing sacrificed to idols; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.
However, there is not in everyone that knowledge; for some, with consciousness of the idol, until now eat it as a thing offered to an idol; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.
But meat does not commend us to God; neither if we should not eat do we come short; nor if we should eat have we an advantage.
But food does not commend us to God; for neither if we eat are we the better, nor if we do not eat are we the worse.
But see lest anywise this your right [to eat] itself be a stumbling-block to the weak.
For if any one see thee, who hast knowledge, sitting at table in an idol-house, shall not his conscience, he being weak, be emboldened to eat the things sacrificed to the idol?
For if anyone sees you who have knowledge eating in an idol’s temple, will not the conscience of him who is weak be emboldened to eat those things offered to idols?
and the weak [one], the brother for whose sake Christ died, will perish through thy knowledge.
And because of your knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?
Now, thus sinning against the brethren, and wounding their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ.
But when you thus sin against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ.
